GLOBAL EXPANSION
Expand Overseas Without Setting Up a Company
Combine our Recruitment and Employer of Record services to enter a new market and start generating sales in weeks, not months, before you invest in a local entity.
How can a company expand overseas without setting up an entity?
By recruiting local talent and employing them through an Employer of Record. Polymorph Recruitment finds the right people in your target country and, through our EOR service in Malaysia and our network of EOR partners around the world, employs them compliantly on your behalf. Your new team can start selling straight away, and you set up your own entity only once the market has proven itself.

Frequently asked questions
Which countries can you help with?
We work with recruitment and EOR partners around the world. Tell us your target market and we’ll confirm how we can support you there.
Can we really start selling without a local company?
In many countries, yes. Your team is employed through the EOR while you build sales. How you invoice customers and handle tax depends on the country, so we recommend taking local tax advice.
What happens when we’re ready to set up our own entity?
Employees can usually be transferred from the EOR to your new company, so there is no disruption to your team.
